Use tool ↗About MakeAD
MakeAD is built around a single move: upload one product photo, describe the shot you want, review and download. It covers the standard e-commerce jobs - clean pack shots, lifestyle scenes, background removal and replacement, relighting and packaging mockups - with presets aimed at Amazon and Shopify listings, plus a generator for short product video from the same still. Work is metered in credits rather than renders, and plans are sized in credits per year, so a heavy month can borrow from a quiet one. New accounts get sixteen free credits to test with, which is a sample rather than a free tier. No company name or country appears anywhere on the site.

Pros & cons of MakeAD
Priced and shaped for a small seller who needs listing imagery this afternoon: one photo in, several usable assets out, with annual credit pools that tolerate uneven months. The gap is accountability - no company, no country, and a credit ledger you have to translate yourself to know what a video actually costs.
Pros
- One source photo produces pack shots, lifestyle scenes, mockups and short video
- Credits are pooled annually, so an intense launch month does not break the plan
- Explicit presets for Amazon and Shopify listing formats
- Entry plan is 16.6 USD a month, cheap against a single product shoot
Cons
- No company name, legal entity or country is published anywhere on the site
- Only sixteen free credits at signup, so evaluation is very limited
- Costs are expressed in credits, so per-image and per-video pricing must be worked out by hand
- No API, so catalogue-scale work means manual uploads
Best for
- Amazon and Shopify sellers refreshing listing imagery without a photographer
- Small brands needing lifestyle scenes they cannot afford to shoot
- Anyone who needs both stills and a short product video from one source photo
Not for
- Brands with strict colour or material accuracy requirements
- Teams needing API access for catalogue-scale batch generation
Watch out: Headline prices are annual-billed; the month-to-month rate is roughly twenty percent higher and the credit pool is quoted per year, not per month.
